Ever go for foods that say artificial sugars or sugar free but notice the item "Sucralose" in it? Your thinking "Hey, i'm eating healthier because it's 0 grams of sugar. But little did you know its actually worse for you than sugar. Doing some research on it, here's some information I found out. Such beverages as diet sodas/diet foods or "zero sugar" items have it.
-The artificial sweetener sucralose, which is sold under the name Splenda™, is one of the up-and-coming "next generation" of high-intensity sugar substitutes. It is non-caloric and about 600 times sweeter than sucrose (white table sugar), although it can vary from 320 tp 1,000 times sweeter, depending on the food application. The white crystalline powder tastes like a lot like sugar, but is more intense in its sweetness.
-Sucralose is not yet approved for use in most European countries, where it is still under review.
Few human studies of safety have been published on sucralose. One small study of diabetic patients using the sweetener showed a statistically significant increase in glycosylated hemoglobin (Hba1C), which is a marker of long-term blood glucose levels and is used to assess glycemic control in diabetic patients. According to the FDA, "increases in glycosolation in hemoglobin imply lessening of control of diabetes.
Research in animals has shown that sucralose can cause many problems in rats, mice, and rabbits, such as:
* Shrunken thymus glands (up to 40% shrinkage)
* Enlarged liver and kidneys.
* Atrophy of lymph follicles in the spleen and thymus
* Increased cecal weight
* Reduced growth rate
* Decreased red blood cell count
* Hyperplasia of the pelvis
* Extension of the pregnancy period
* Aborted pregnancy
* Decreased fetal body weights and placental weights
* Diarrhea
According to one source (Sucralose Toxicity Information Center), concerning the significant reduction in size of the thymus gland, "the manufacturer claimed that the sucralose was unpleasant for the rodents to eat in large doses and that starvation caused the shruken thymus glands.
The FDA acknowledges that sucralose "is produced at an approximate purity of 98%." While that may sound pretty pure, just what is in that other 2%? It turns out that the final sucralose product contains small amounts of potentially dangerous substances such as:
* Heavy Metals (e.g., Lead)
* Arsenic
* Triphenilphosphine Oxide
* Methanol
* Chlorinated Disaccharides
* Chlorinated Monosaccharide
Although manufacturing guidelines do specify limits on these substances there is no guarantee that such limits will always be met. (Again folks, this is the FDA we're talking about that allows those bullshit medicines with 100's of side effects to go on the market and had been paid off in the past to allow other horrible items to go on the market that is nothing but damaging to our health)
The Sucralose Toxicity Information Centerconcludes that:
While it is unlikely that sucralose is as toxic as the poisoning people are experiencing from Monsanato's aspartame, it is clear from the hazards seen in pre-approval research and from its chemical structure that years or decades of use may contribute to serious chronic immunological or neurological disorders.
Some people look at me like I'm crazy when I read the labels on foods. I look at it like i'm informing myself. Sometimes it takes longer to decide what food you are going to eat and what to pick out then it takes to read the labels. Stop being lazy take a moment to see what you are putting in your body's people. LEARN.

Another update on Swine Flu Vaccine - Dangers of Squalene Oil
First, a small video on how FOX NEWS yet again, proves to be in the hands of the rich and powerful. With the bullshit reasons they say to get the H1N1 shot, such as if you have a cough, thank god this Dr was on to make this news reporter and the W.H.O(World Health Organization) look like a fool.
Notice what he said about Thymerasol (which I did a blog about a week or two ago)...
Now onto Squalene oil
“Instead of mass murdering quickly and compassionately, putting squalene in today’s swine flu vaccines assures populations will suffer chronically and painfully for life, assuming people survive the viral recombinants in the vaccine.”
Leonard G. Horowitz, DMD, MA, MPH. DNM, DMM
Award winning author and public health expert
Yet another reason I'm not getting the Swine Flu shot and I urge others to avoid it as well. Here's some research I did on Squalene Oil:
-Gulf War Syndrome and many other immunopathologies in an estimated half million disabled veterans, contained laboratory contaminations and chemical toxins,(10) including the oil squalene, condemned by Congressional investigators and a consensus of scientists.
-Veteran vaccine risk assessor, Dr. Viera Scheibner, investigated squalene’s use as a vaccine adjuvant and wrote:
“Squalene contributed to the cascade of reactions called Gulf War Syndrome. GIs developed arthritis, fibromyalgia, lymphadenopathy, rashes, photosensitive rashes, malar rashes, chronic fatigue, chronic headaches, abnormal body hair loss, non-healing skin lesions, aphthous ulcers, dizziness, weakness, memory loss, seizures, mood changes, neuropsychiatric problems, anti-thyroid effects, anaemia, elevated ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, deadly Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Raynaud’s phenomenon with paroxysms of lack of blood in fingers and toes in fingers and toes, Sjorgren’s syndrome with blurred vision, chronic diarrhea, night sweats and low-grade fever.”
-Gary Matsumoto, an award-winning investigative journalist, wrote:
“Squalene adjuvants are a key ingredient in a whole new generation of vaccines intended for mass [consumption] around the globe. . . . Squalene is not just a molecule found in a knee or elbow, it is found throughout the nervous system and the brain. . . . When injected in the body, the immune system attacks it as an enemy to be eliminated. . . .”Eating and digesting squalene isn’t a problem. But injecting it “galvanize(s) the immune system into attacking it, which can produce self-destructive cross reactions against the same molecule in the places where it occurs naturally in the body - and where it is critical to the health of the nervous system.”

More proof on why to not get the Swine Flu shot.
In 1976, the outbreak of the swine flu had occured and the scare of being told "YOU NEED TO GET THIS SHOT!" occurred. Back when the news actually did investigative and in your face reporting, they did a special on 60 minutes about this. Respect to Mike Wallace being the reporter he was.
PART 1
PART 2
It's amazing the lies that were told as well as how the news reporter actually exposed them. You don't see that with newscasters or the media overall as they are puppets.
These side effects are still going on today. People may say "ohh the swine flu shot is more safe now, that was back in the 70's. It's not. I can list a ton of sources in which people have suffered side effects and even show you a video of a woman suffering neurological damage from it. It's hard as hell to watch and as insane as it sounds, she can't walk or talk. but if she walks backward or jogs she's ok. once she slows down, she spasms all over and can't move. If you don't believe me i'll make it the next blog post.
This shot didn't work in the past and there's no way I'm goin to take the nasal spray version and shoot that directly into my brain. Wake up people, stay away from this!

The Carbon Tax....Damn it Al Gore!
Start at the 1:45:00 to the 2:00:00 mark.
A tax on carbon dioxide. Saying too much of it is causing global warming (which is a bullshit scam on it's own). We breathe out carbon dioxide and plant life depends on it! In return, the plant life gives us oxygen that helps us breathe! What's next, an oxygen tax? This also is an increase on taxes on gas. Right now, gas is as high as 3.00 here in NY. If we got rid of the taxes, gas would be under a dollar. So why would we want another tax! And with the whole unlawful occupancy of your house if it doesn't meet standards.....wake up people, this bill is no good! Take 15 mins out of your life, watch the clip above, and learn. Research on your own about this!

Immortal Technique Kicking Truth About Government & Music
The U.S. government uses foreign wars to distract people’s attention from internal problems. That’s according to rapper and political activist ‘Immortal Technique’. In an exclusive interview with RT’s Marina Portnaya he says America’s bad decisions are covered up with lame excuses.
Knowledge to me is being said here. My exact views on the music industry are explained perfectly at the 11:00 mark. And like he said, "I have no problem being proved wrong or debated with, because it helps me grow."
One of my fav songs by him. Pretty powerful statements here. Features parts from other rappers songs in the chorus including Mos Def, Jadakiss, and Eminem.

Oh plastic bottles, how incredible it is how unsafe you can be
So if you're like me, you tend to drink out a plastic bottle at least once throughout the day. Some of those bottles might be a water bottle, soda bottle, gatorade bottle, etc Or you may have a thermos that you want to refill when you go to the gym. But did you realize that the chemicals that make the plastic bottles (oil is the number one chemical in making plastic, so imagine the chemicals in that), can actually leak into your drinks. Watch the video below, then read on.
Yet another product that's allowed through the FDA, that says "Heyyy it's ok!" When it's not. I noticed I started looking at the numbers now and stores are now starting to advertise products that have a 7 on it, but is BPA free. Canada has proclaimed BPA to be a hazardous material. If you'd like a to watch a video on BPA's, Specifically pay attention to the 2:25 mark! Then the 4:00 mark!
Props to Lou Dobbs on that. So for your average water bottle, soda bottle, gatorade bottle, it's safe to use once, but you shouldn't use more than once. if it's got a 4 or 5, avoid and if a 7, it's got BPA's in it so definitly avoid. It takes a few seconds to read the little number in the triangle. Don't be lazy.
To quote Lou Dobbs at the end of the video "The fda is standing by it's decade old approval that BPA is safe. And these studies are based on studies funded by.....the plastic industry".
Knowledge is key.

FLUORIDE IS NOT AS SAFE AS YOU ARE MADE TO BELIEVE
I think the best quote I've heard about fluoride goes like this....
"Fluoridation....it is the greatest fraud that has ever been perpetrated and it has been perpetrated on more people then any other fraud has" - Professor Albert Schatz, Ph.D in Microbiology and Nobel Prize Winner for discovering Steptomycin
Some fifty years after the United States began adding fluoride to public water supplies to reduce cavities in children’s teeth, declassified government documents are shedding new light on the roots of that still controversial public health measure, revealing a surprising connection between fluoride and the dawning of the nuclear age.
Today, two thirds of U.S. public drinking water is fluoridated. Many municipalities still resist the practice, disbelieving the government’s assurances of safety .
And what do you know, good ol' Newburgh NY was once a testing ground for fluoride. How was it a testing ground? Well from an excerpt "Flouride, Teeth, and The Atomic Bomb" (in which declassified documents explain how fluoride was the key chemical in the atomic bomb production), the following is said...
"Human studies were required. Bomb program researchers played a leading role in the design and implementation of the most extensive U.S. study of the health effects of fluoridating public drinking water—conducted in Newburgh, New York from 1945 to 1956. Then, in a classified operation code-named "Program F," they secretly gathered and analysed blood and tissue samples from Newburgh citizens, with the cooperation of State Health Department personnel. In May 1945, Newburgh’s water was fluoridated, and over the next ten years its residents were studied by the State Health Department. In tandem, Program F conducted its own secret studies, focusing on the amounts of fluoride Newburgh citizens retained in their blood and tissues—key information sought by the bomb program: "Possible toxic effects of fluoride were in the forefront of consideration," the advisory committee stated. Health Department personnel cooperated, shipping blood and placenta samples to the Program F team at the University of Rochester. The samples were collected by Dr. David B. Overton, the Department’s chief of pediatric studies at Newburgh. The final report of the Newburgh Demonstration Project, published in 1956 in the Journal of the American Dental Association, concluded that "small concentrations" of fluoride were safe for U.S. citizens. The biological proof—"based on work performed ... at the University of Rochester Atomic Energy Project"—was delivered by Dr. Hodge."
So small amounts are safe......EXPLAIN THIS THEN
The Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, 5th Edition (1984) gives lead a toxicity rating of 3 to 4 (3 = moderately toxic, 4 = very toxic) and the EPA has set 0.015 ppm as the MCL for lead in drinking water—with a goal of 0.0ppm. The toxicity rating for fluoride is 4, yet the MCL for fluoride is currently set at 4.0ppm, over 250 times the permissable level for lead
So, what can you do to protect yourself from fluoride?
First, avoid fluoridated water. Much of the metropolitan area, including New York City water is artificially fluoridated. Boiling water removes chlorine, but concentrates fluoride. Water filters do not remove fluoride, unless there is a reverse osmosis component. Children should avoid fluoridated vitamins and fluoride treatments at the dentist. Everyone should avoid fluoridated toothpaste. The concentration of fluoride in water is 1 ppm, in toothpaste 1,000 ppm and in fluoride dental rinses 10,000 ppm. Work on your legislators to get fluoride out of the water supplies.

Pfizer. Making billions with medicine that offers horrible side effects
What I thought was interesting specifically was the quote "Only your doctor can diagnose depression", yet they are doing everything to tell you what causes it, in my opinion an form of diagnosing depression. They list some side effects, but according to drugs.com, there are for more side effects to it. The company that created this medicine and the 2 others I will list, is named Pfizer. We've all seen these commercials and it's scary to know that some of the medicines they create to "help us", include side effects of seizures, heart attacks, and as much as schizophrenia. The three medicines I'm listing are
Aricept - For Alzheimers
Nardil - For Depression
Zoloft - For Depression
Aricept - Alzheimers
side effects :
Muscle cramps
Vomiting
Fatigue
Loss of appetite
Skin discoloration
Decrease in weight
Depression
Abnormal dreams
Arthritis
Fainting
Tiredness
Frequent urination.
Chest pain
Hot flashes
Bloating
High blood pressure (hypertension)
Gastrointestinal bleeding
Dehydration
Diabetes
Hair loss
Delusions
Tremor
Irritability
Increased sex drive (libido)
Sore throat
Middle ear infection (otitis media)
Blurred vision
Abnormal crying
Congestive heart failure.
Nardil- Depression
Nervous System:
Ataxia,
shock-like coma
toxic delirium
manic reaction
convulsions
acute anxiety reaction
precipitation of schizophrenia
transient respiratory and cardiovascular depression following ECT
Gastrointestinal—To date, fatal progressive necrotizing hepatocellular damage has been reported in very few patients. Reversible jaundice.
Zoloft - depression
mood or behavior changes,
anxiety
panic attacks
trouble sleeping
new or increased impulsiveness
irritable
agitated
hostile
aggressive
restless
hyperactive (mentally or physically)
more depressed

overactive reflexes
nausea
vomiting
diarrhea
loss of appetite
feeling unsteady
loss of coordination
headache
trouble concentrating
memory problems
weakness
confusion
hallucinations
fainting
seizure
shallow breathing or breathing that stops
I don't know about you folks, but to be allowed to put this out there knowing these side effects can happen to you, there's gotta be other ways. And why a medicine such as these three can be legalized other than greed and big money, I'll never know.

Oh those sneaky sneaky food people. Ascorbic Acid isn't Vitamin C!
So many foods and beverages now a day promote 100% Vitamin C (for example, McDonalds Apple Juice). However, our reading skills need to come into play and look at the ingredients. "Rich" and "Fortified" are lovely words of propoganda to get you thinking it's Vitamin C in your diet, meanwhile it's anything but. If the ingredient is Ascorbic Acid, then you are really not getting the Vitamin C you think you are getting. From what I've been reading, the name is actually Latin for anti-scurvy, however it's really not a vitamin as well as does nothing for scurvy.
The controversy began in the 1930's when Vitamin C was first discovered. If you ask the medical community they'll say vitamin C is nothing more than ascorbic acid, it being the isolated "Vitamin". Doctor Royal Lee, considered the world's greatest nutritionist, was, as far back as the 1940's, providing evidence that the anti-infection Vitamin C complex does not consist simply of ascorbic acid; it isn't even part of it.
Ascorbic acid is what protects and preserves acting as the "shell" of the vitamin C complex. The discoverer of Vitamin C, Dr. Albert Szent Gyorgi, stated that ascorbic acid was not the active anti-scurvy factor of the C complex. Dr. Gyorgi reported that with the isolated ascorbic acid he could not stop the various characteristics of scurvy which were reliably cured with the so-called "impure" vitamin C from food sources.
A comment I liked was "Using just the ascorbic acid, "the preserver of the C complex," would be like preparing a meal and eating the plate. Ascorbic acid does not provide therapeutic benefits without its synergists."...those synergists being the whole Vitamin C Complex
So it seems if you are looking for Vitamin C to get you healthy, look for the Vitamin C complex pills, not the fake vitamin c that the FDA has no problem with passing off as Vitamin C, known as Ascorbic Acid. Some foods that are a great source of real Vitamin c are
# 1 Large Red Bell Pepper: 283mg
# 1 cup of Blackcurrants: 202mg
# 1 Guava: 165mg
# 1 large Kiwifruit: 89mg
# ? cup Broccoli: 58mg
# 1 cup of Kale: 53mg

Yet another reason I won't get a flu vaccine
I understand how tolerance works, but to me, the idea of having to shoot a virus in to my body to help grow a tolerance to catching it, just doesn't appease to me or make 100% sense. I've never gotten a flu shot in my life and go figure, have never had the flu. Since 2008 I've learned to eat healthier, I work out 5 days a week, and overall keep a much more upbeat positive lifestyle. With these three things, the only time I felt under the weather was on two occasions, in which I've gotten at most a head cold that lasted for 2 days (pretty much sweated it out at the gym). I'd say that's not too bad being I see people sick CONSTANTLY, like it's the cool thing to be.
Recently though, with this whole Swine Flu situation, (which isn't the first time we've had this outbreak, as it happend once in the 1970's), people have been getting flu shots and swine flu shots at rapid pace. However, these vaccines contain Thiomersal, which is 49.6% mercury. Thiomersal is very toxic by inhalation, ingestion, and in contact with skin, with a danger of cumulative effects. When applied to human nerve cells it changes cell membrane permeability and induces programmed cell death. It is also very toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause long-term adverse effects in aquatic environments
If you want your flu shot mercury free, you have to specify that you want it mercury free.
Taken from an article on Swine Flu...Click here to read the full article
“A typical 0.5 milliliter flu shot contains 25 micrograms – or 50,000 parts per billion – of mercury,” the Journal reported.
“The EPA classifies a liquid with 200 parts per billion of mercury as hazardous waste,” it advised. “The limit for drinking water is 2 parts per billion.”
Using the standards set for methyl mercury consumption, “an average 130-pound person getting the flu shot would exceed the daily limit by more than four times,” the Journal reported.
“A 22-pound baby would get more than 25 times the amount of mercury considered safe,” it said.
“Mercury is among the most toxic heavy metals and is known to poison the central nervous system, liver, gastrointestinal tract and other systems in the body,” the Journal reported.
Still need the flu shot? And some of these flu shots are now taken in your nose as you breathe in a vapored burst, for those who are afraid of needles. Nothin like a little mercury straight to the brain.
When the influenza vaccines “are injected into pregnant woman and infants as young as six months, those vaccines contain 50,000 ppb mercury,” warns Deirdre Imus in a November 19, 2007, Huffington Post article titled, “Over Medicated and Over-Vaccinated: The Unintended Consequence of Medicines Meant to Protect.”
It's just not worth it.

When applied to human nerve cells it changes cell membrane permeability and induces programmed cell death. It is also very toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause long-term adverse effects in aquatic environments
If you want your flu shot mercury free, you have to specify that you want it mercury free.

“A typical 0.5 milliliter flu shot contains 25 micrograms – or 50,000 parts per billion – of mercury,” the Journal reported.
“The EPA classifies a liquid with 200 parts per billion of mercury as hazardous waste,” it advised. “The limit for drinking water is 2 parts per billion.”
Using the standards set for methyl mercury consumption, “an average 130-pound person getting the flu shot would exceed the daily limit by more than four times,” the Journal reported.
“A 22-pound baby would get more than 25 times the amount of mercury considered safe,” it said.
“Mercury is among the most toxic heavy metals and is known to poison the central nervous system, liver, gastrointestinal tract and other systems in the body,” the Journal reported.
Still need the flu shot? And some of these flu shots are now taken in your nose as you breathe in a vapored burst, for those who are afraid of needles. Nothin like a little mercury straight to the brain.
When the influenza vaccines “are injected into pregnant woman and infants as young as six months, those vaccines contain 50,000 ppb mercury,” warns Deirdre Imus in a November 19, 2007, Huffington Post article titled, “Over Medicated and Over-Vaccinated: The Unintended Consequence of Medicines Meant to Protect.”
It's just not worth it.
